can't get a reference to menu item

Question

I got my navigation menu and I can't activate a function when an item is being clicked on. I don't get any id on my log console. I have tied using switch and it didn't work. My menu can open perfectly. I hope someone will know how to fix it.

public class SummeyAct extends AppCompatActivity {
    Context context;
    FirebaseAuth firebaseAuth;
    private DrawerLayout drawerLayout;
    private ActionBarDrawerToggle actionBarDrawerToggle;
    Intent intent;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_summey);
        drawerLayout = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
        actionBarDrawerToggle = new ActionBarDrawerToggle(this ,drawerLayout, R.string.open, R.string.close);
        drawerLayout.addDrawerListener(actionBarDrawerToggle);
        actionBarDrawerToggle.syncState();

        getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);


        context = this;
    }
@Override
    public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {


        Log.d("menu id",String.valueOf(item.getItemId()));

        switch (item.getItemId()) {
            case R.id.PlayerListMenu:
                Intent intent = new Intent(context, Players.class);
                startActivity(intent);
                return true;
            case R.id.FanChatMenu:
                Intent intent2 = new Intent(context, Players.class);
                startActivity(intent2);
                return true;
            case R.id.SighnOutMenu:
                LogOutMethod();
                return true;


        }
        if(actionBarDrawerToggle.onOptionsItemSelected(item))
        {
            return true;
        }

        return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
    }

You need to add setNavigationItemSelectedListener on your navigation view and get the callbacks on click on there. Check out answer on this StackOverflow question

You need call setNavigationItemselectedalistener on that and handle on click on items there. Check out the link I posted. It should be sufficient. – karandeep singh Feb 12 '18 at 21:49
